I dont know the piano part, but all the chords go along great with the song and the 
sounds good, let me know what you think.
I play this song with a capo on 2 because it sounds better with the song if you play 
way verses bar chords. So that is how i tabbed it, but if you dont have a capo or 
this song is in the key of B.
